AALP 161 – Looking Fear In The Face
Today’s podcast episode is with yours truly. Upon returning from vacation I was feeling FEAR arise and rather than ignore it and hope it went away which is the normal response, I decided to dive into one of the inquiry processes I normally take my clients through. To explain how this works — I start by talking about the fear and feeling into it and then I begin asking questions of the fear. Once I move into the process of feeling the fear it becomes more like a meditation. You probably know me by now — I am all about sharing my own vulnerabilities in hopes that it shows that you are NOT alone and that you have the power to shift your mind and your emotions — not through resistance but through love and self-compassion. All you have to do is look your fear in the face and it naturally starts to dissolve. By the time I was done with this I felt much better and the fear has not returned! Pretty cool, huh? TO RECAP… The questions I asked of myself — What feeling am I ready to own the creation of? What is stopping me from letting go of the feeling (in this case fear)? As I feel into what I am experiencing to answer these questions, the emotions arise and start to release the clogged energy that is keeping the fear stuck inside of me. In the end I step into who I really am outside of the fear which allows the rest of the energy to continue releasing. It is then that you can ask yourself if you feel ready to own all of your fear — if the answer is yes then you know that the energy has released 🙂 if the answer is no, then you can return to this again and again until it shifts.
